City & South London Railway locomotive number 13, dating from 1890, preserved at London's Transport Museum Depot. The associated information reads:
The City & South London Railway, which opened in 1890, was London's first deep level Tube and the first underground electric railway in the world. This locomotive is very important both as part of the prototype Tube network and because it dates from the birth of the electric traction industry.
